Okay, so here’s my problem.

I have this button. When I move my mouse on top of the button (or over it, depends on how you’d like to call it :}), some text should appear next to it. I’ve already done that. I made a movieclip, and put it on the “over” state.

So when you go over the button, the text appears from OUT of the button and moves a little bit to the right, next to the button. But when my mouse goes OFF the button, the text just disappears. Which is logical ofcourse. But here’s my question:

How can I make the text go left again and disappear back into the button when my mouse goes OFF the button?

I hope this made any sense… :bu:
